Getting to Hang Nadim Airport

Arrive at least 2.5–3 hours before departure for international check-in (passport control and customs).

Ferry-to-Flight Transfer from Singapore

Allow at least 3.5 hours from your ferry departure in Singapore to your flight departure at BTH on a normal weekday. Budget 4.5–5 hours during public holidays or peak traffic. There is no interline baggage between the ferry and the airline — collect all bags at the Batam ferry terminal and recheck at the airport.
